Thanks for posting! Man, if I had that JBL/Levinson system, I think I'd be finished with shopping for a long, long time.

Not sure. Not heard anything new JBL, but wow.
In my day it was easy to hear new JBLs
I worked at a store that stocked them and stocked PRO parts AND stuff.
Wish I had been there. I would love to hear them, NOW!
It was quite a display. Well, maybe you can make it next year?

Martin-I'll take Hong Kong or Shanghai over Vegas anyday!
When do you come to Chinese mainland?
Dave72,
I made the drive from Iowa and went to CES (in the AV business and a JBL dealer), and after seeing the display rooms at the Venetian, thought Harman's exhibition room embarrassed
the effort most other vendors of mine had. Based on hearing the 67000's there, I ended up buying a pair for myself, replacing K2 S9900's which I did not have long. I had the DD-66000 before the K2 and am familiar with the S4700 and 1400 Array as well. It was more of a near field setup than I expected but I was surprised how well they worked up close and personal.
I see from your profile you live in Las Vegas and have S4700's. Did you get a chance to hear the 67's and if so what did you think?
Wow! That's about 23-24 hours of driving!
I guess no one can say you aren't committed!

Or maybe should be?
Cool, sounds great! Yes, I am in Vegas and have S4700s. Yes I did hear them. They're incredible, or at least, very, very good.

Mr.Widget,
I've made it in as little as 20.5 hours, all depending on traffic, road construction and, of course at my age, bladder control.
Lots of things to see and do along the way from Iowa to Vegas. Five national parks are very close so I usually take a few extra days.
If you have only heard Everest's at a trade show, I can understand how somebody could think they aren't as great as advertised. Harman's CES area at the Hard Rock was nothing more than a huge, I mean huge, empty space finished off with all of the fixtures and equipment you would expect at a trade show. The Everest's were in a space sectioned off by some very flimsy make shift walls, incapable of containing any bass and only allowing a muffling of the rest of the sound happening outside. They were set up fairly close together, about 7-8 feet apart, and listened to at only 10 feet away or so. Given all of the disadvantages I thought they sounded real good. Deep bass was down at bit as expected and there was some small amount of upper bass coloration, common at trade shows. The DD-66000 is a very good speaker and right now is extremely competitive at it's street price, if not a best buy. I've only been listening a few hours to mine, but the 67 improves upon the 66 while maintaining the basic essence. It's just more linear with a better octave to octave balance and it seems to have less energy storage with a quicker bass attack and decay.
